It's also just completely inane. Okay let's say I was a russian asset, does that change the fact that Joe Biden has deported more people? It's just a thought killer meant to ignore any criticism.

They just need a quick, easy way to dismiss people without actually engaging their argument. I get hit with something similar sometimes. ".ml, argument invalid." because they don't want to admit they're supporting genocide.
The people calling everyone else bots can't parse a message from the wrong domain name. Sad!
Obsession with a plot! Obsession with a plot!
If Liberals aren't fascists why are they using U-Fascism as a checklist for how to do ideology?
Judeo bolshevist lies
"This needs a reskin"
~~judeo~~ bolshevist/communist lies
"Still a bit dated"
russian disinformation
"Now we cooking"
Now call them anti-~~semitic~~ semetic and you're done
the star trek instance defederation is the most haunting example of this.
i'd like to think that trekkies are more open minded; but it was another reminder that we're the same as everyone else.
They are indistinguishable from when the IDF calls everything hamas.
Not that hot of a take.
its the same country even
Iunno bout that just because they rhyme doesnt mean theyre related
Seems a bit of a stretch. Orientalism? Sure, I can see that. Antisemitism? I'm going to need some convincing.
i think in this specific instance its serving the same purpose of demonizing our ideas by using a popular hated strawman. which was jews at that time, but is russia now.
in general this is one the final purposes of these -isms and -phobias they keep pushing constantly.
Yeah Jews got swapped for Slavs
isn't that generally just describing an element of fascism?
scratch a etc
yeah, fascism and racism have a close relationship, for example.
fascism can't sustain itself without an 'other' out-group they can focus people's anger at.
preferrably a minority that has a harder time defending itself and putting the ruse into question, but it can technically even be an entire other nationality.
